Salmon and Noodle Salad

This salad makes a refreshing, light lunch.  It is, for the most part, heart healthy.  It would be more so if made with whole grain noodles.  :-)  I like to keep the fish separate from the salad and allow each person to add fish to their individual taste.  


1 cup sugar snap peas - sliced
1 carrot - julienned
1 tomato - petite cut
A handful of spinach - sliced
A few leaves of cilantro - sliced
2 tbsp. almonds - chopped
2 tbsp dried cranberries
A dash ginger
A dash garlic salt
A dash chipotle chili pepper
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. Italian dressing
About 2 cups cooked noodles (any variety cooked according to package directions and cooled)
Smoked salmon and/or tuna

Mix all the ingredients, except the smoked salmon/tuna, together in a large bow.
Add smoked salmon/tuna just before eating and mix thoroughly.
Enjoy
